PHNOM PENH: Cambodia had decided to close all KTV or karaoke clubs and cinemas across the country in order to prevent the spread of Covid-19 (coronavirus), Health Minister Mam Bunheng said in a statement on Tuesday (March 17).
The closure was made at the request of Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen. He said in the statement sent to Tourism Minister and Governors of all cities and provinces across the kingdom.
The latest measure came after Cambodia detected 12 more cases of Covid-19 on Tuesday, bringing the total number of the confirmed cases in the kingdom to 24. Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen on Sunday issued a directive, advising the Cambodian people not to travel to Europe, the United States and Iran if not necessary.
"For civil servants and Cambodian people who have just returned home from countries in Europe, the United States and Iran, they must self-isolate for 14 days from the day of their arrivals to Cambodia," Hun Sen said.
